In the Serial Port Settings menu, set the Group ID and the Unit ID so that the combined ID is unique for each Bay Cat X in this RS232 loop.

Addressing Bay Cat X

Part of the RS232 command will be an address. This address may take several forms. For example, suppose we

have 8 units in one area divided into two groups. We might set the ID s of the units like this:
